• Joint PhD Programs: Recent Graduates Share

  …sis defence in Australia; in Russia, I only presented my research at my department and as part of several conferences. My thesis was dedicated to controlling near electromagnetic fields by using new artificial metamaterial structures. These allow to control electromagnetic fields on a subwave level - a much lesser scale than that of …

• ITMO Begins Research on Carbon Nanodot Synthesis Methods

  …reas of the spectre. Unlike regular quantum dots, where the spectral position of luminescence bands is determined mostly by the nanocrystals’ size, carbon dots’ spectral and kinetic properties are determined for the most part by their inner structure, the presence of volume and surface defects, as well as the type and number of integrated foreign atoms that substitut…

  …d the most uncrushable – even in Soviet times young unmarried girls tried to learn about their future husbands on the night before Christmas). The most popular ways of fortunetelling were: To ask the name of the first random man the girl meets on the street (which is destined to be the name of her future husband) To throw a boot down the street (i…

• ITMO Fellowship Stories: 'Science is Our Common Language'

  …icate, for example, the shells of French oysters. There’re lots of applications in medicine, such as in nano-bio photonics, where we can create extremely clean plasmonic or magneto-plasmonic nano-particles and use them for cancer detection and local disease treatment. In addition, silicon nanoparticles formed by laser ablation not only have promising properties for d…

• ITMO Fellowship Stories: 'Interest In Research Is Primary, Success Is Secondary'

  …u work right after you moved to Europe? I left Russia for good only in January 2000 to start with a standard 2-year postdoctoral position at the University of Leiden in the Netherlands. This was a position for a theory project in mesoscopic phyics: the field describing universal properties of electron transport in very small conductors at very low temperatures. Th…

• ITMO Scientists Develop New “White” Near-Field Optical Microscope

  …ct is less than a wavelength in size, it cannot be observed in detail. This is what is called the diffraction limit. The explanation for this phenomenon is such: the electromagnetic field that carries information about the object with a spatial resolution of less than the size of a wavelength is localized near the object, in the near field, and cannot be examined fro…

• New Opportunities: ITMO University Revamps Its Entrepreneurial Activities

  …s to the entrepreneurial approach that ITMO started to develop those new fields that it never focused on before, like the Biochemistry Cluster that is now comprised of a whole network of international laboratories. Actually, if not for that, we wouldn’t even have started to work in the field of Computer Science back in the 90’s.   ITMO's  Biochemistry Cluster W…

  …r” worlds; this means that, in regular conditions, nanocrystals behave like regular Brownian particles, constantly in motion and colliding with each other. However, if their kinetic energy were to be lowered, along with their speed and temperature, they will enter a quantum state. Such an effect can be achieved using optical cooling. Physicists from ITMO Universit…

Thus, the further transformation of the educational process will be conducted in accordance with the concept of a network university and in close cooperation with companies. In developing new standards, the Federal State Educational Standards were also taken into account, as well as the professional sta…
